Broadly, aneurysm recurrence after initially “adequate” endovascular treatment has been attributed to one of four mechanisms: (1) coil compaction secondary to a water-hammer effect from pulse pressure; (2) coil subsidence into the thrombus of a partially thrombosed aneurysm sac; (3) coil penetrat...
Several of the B-Vitamins have been clinically shown to help prevent a leaky brain and support the blood-brain barrier.Vitamin B1 (thiamine) –Thiamine is a required cofactor in the synthesis of acetylcholine, is part of the KREBs cycle that produces adenosine triphosphate (ATP), is needed ...
Central to the interpretation of hyponatremia is the comparison of plasma and urine osmolality. Both plasma and urine osmolality may be measured by determining their freezing point. Given that the freezing point of a solution compared to distilled water is linearly related to its osmotic pressure, i...
that NSAIDs might prevent or arrest dementia. Use of NSAIDs to pre-empt dementia [9], as suggested also by McCollum, appears to be a logistically impossible therapeutic feat. Finally, indomethacin, by virtue of its powerful cerebrovascular constrictor action [10], as quoted by...

The technical nuances of superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass are described in the setting of clip reconstruction of giant middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysm. In addition to an operative video, the anatomy and surgical technique are demonstrated in virtual reality to enhance...
Finally important proteins that prevent the blood from clotting are also lost in the urine. This makes children with nephrotic syndrome more prone to blood clots. Now you may have a general knowledge of symptoms of childhood Nephrotic Syndrome. For more information about Nephrotic Syndrome, you can...
Hence, even though it is a misnomer, the term antiphospholipid antibody as a generic term persists when referring to antibodies that specifically target β2GPI and prothrombin. Overview of the assays Lupus anticoagulant The LA is an assay that detects immunoglobulins that, although prevent coagulation...
